It&#39;s amazing how many she carries around with her without really noticing that they are piling up.<br /><br />I also find it amazing how many dishes I find in the children&#39;s rooms even though food isn&#39;t allowed in bedrooms.

Last week my son, who takes out the trash, didn&#39;t feel like going to the end of the driveway and retrieving the can. So he set the bag of trash next to the house. I didn&#39;t say anything. The next morning he spent half an hour picking up the scattered garbage, after some animal helped itself to the whole bag.
